Marantz VP-15S1 - DLP Video Projector
Now a wider audience has access to excellent quality video projection, thanks to the introduction of the new VP-15S1. As a full HD DLP® 1920x1080 projector, it fulfils all the demands of the new generation HD media such as HD-DVD, Blu-ray Disc™, and HD satellite TV.
It also features the finest video technology from Gennum and the perfect parameters from Marantz. The result? Even non-HD sources such as DVD or TV look like high definition heaven. In addition, the high light output and the flexibility for installation make it a universal projector with an outstanding performance.
Last year, the Marantz VP-11S1 took high definition video into a new level of sublime pleasure. For the first time ever, you could immerse yourself in the full DLP video experience of 1920x1080 pixels (also known as full HD). Quite simply, it set the standard for reference quality video projection.
Now that breathtaking experience is taken to a wider audience, with a new control algorithm for the DLP chip and a new light path with additional iris. The result is a stunning contrast ratio of 10,000 to one, and a brightness of 1000 ANSI lumen.
Retaining the excellent VXP™ video processing GF9351 by Gennum and two HDMI1.3 inputs. It therefore creates astonishing natural picture quality, and supports the Deep Color™ standard for the high resolution media such as Blu-ray Disc™ and HD DVD.
